ditions may be made clearer. 1t also ap-

Tending the cup.
The club will also give dinner to Paine

RISKS OF CONTAINERS.


The Adyisability OF Protecting Them
Against Their Own Foolhardiness.
In ministering to the wants Of the
majority of mankind, the ministrants
are often called upon to discharge dan
gerous tasks. The unarmed policeman,
for example, is expected to tackle the
armed burglar, and to his credit be it
said that he usually fuliills the cxpcc-
t%ation; the bricklaycr works at Il dizzy
height, while the boy and maid-of-all-
work must brace their nerves sufli-
GENTLY to be able to clean the outside
of Il third OF fourth story window,
whether the feat be performed by
standing on a narrow sill or parapct,
or sitting on the sill with sash drawn
to the lap, The discharge of each of
these duties has ere now proved fatal;
but in defense of them this can at least
be urgcd-they are not risks w~antonly
run, and are encountered in the exer-
else of legitimate callings. In some
cases, too, the 'Steeplc Jack" is of
use, though many of his perilous as
cents are simply sensational. The
stccplc-chase jockey and the colt
breaker are men whom insurance of
fees would probably not insure at or
binary rates; though they, like the
people aforementioned, risk their
nccks and their lives in the prosecu-
ton of generally accepted callings, of
which the danger may or may not be
magnilied. But the profession of n
| lion-tamer must be counted gratuit-
ously hazardous. The latest victim to
the craze of seeing a fellow creature
run unnecessary risks is a lion-tamcr
known as Salvador, a pupil of the cele-
| bratcd Bidct, who was himself badly
mauled by his lions in France not long
ago. All Englishmen admire exhibit
tions of pluck, strength and skill; but
persons who possess these in the high
est degree are usually the very ones
who fail to find pleasure in the spccta-
Gle of IA fellow mai carrying his life
in his hand for the qualification OF II
gaping multitude who have paid II shil-
ling II head to see him do it. Now that
Governments have legislatcd for the
weak. it would be no bad thing il they
would do for the lion-tamer what they
have already done for the British
sailor-viz., protect him against him
self. which they could do by stop
ping %lion-taming performances. Lon
